"How can I get the personal contact information or IP address for a user on a forum?"

In short, you can't. You really only have two ways - the first is to ask the member for their contact information, the second is to take the complaint to a court of law, and have a court order issued to collect the information. The reason for this is that in most countries, privacy legislation prevents the website owner from sharing that information with you.


The IP of every post on this forum is logged and visible to Pete.  It doesn't take a court order, or any sort of legal proceeding to "collect."  If Pete wanted to, he could expose the IP of every poster on here, even this one, for all to see.

Everyone's IP is logged whether you register or not, just as it was on Topix.
I'm not worried in the least, and neither should anyone else be, unless of course, they are out to harrass or stalk other posters here, which would give reason to do so, perhaps.

Pete may know the IP of users, but legally he is still not permited to release such without a court order because of privacy legislation that prevents him from doing so, as I said previously..

You seem to do a lot of talking and explaining for Peter. R U two partners in this Topix-Redeux? This BS is very much like topixOne.

This forum is the true true weird now. It gives me agita. Something is just not right.

LOL!!  You haven't a clue what you're taking about.  Cite the legislation.

I'm answering to posters that quoted mine - is all.
If you have a problem with that, then don't quote mine, if you don't expect a response in return.
That's the simplest solution for all.

Yes, you come to mind for instance. Now aside from you, Pimp Daddy had to be the worst I have been around.
